Abstract Learning rate scheduling (LRS) is a critical factor influencing the performance of neural networks by accelerating convergence learning algorithms and enhancing generalization capabilities. The escalating computational demands in artificial intelligence (AI) necessitate advanced hardware solutions capable supporting network training with LRS. This not only requires linear symmetric analog programming capabilities but also precise adjustment channel conductance to achieve tunable...

An independent pump-controlled hydraulic system based on a variable speed displacement power source (VSVDPS) can eliminate throttle losses of the electric loader boom and recover gravitational potential energy. However, challenges arise in efficiently rapidly solving for optimal due to severe load fluctuations, model inaccuracies, coupling two variables. This paper proposes an energy-efficient optimization method search combined (MSCM), which leverages advantages model-based fast solution...

To address the performance degradation of standard linear extended state observers (LESO) caused by severe peaking phenomena with increasing system order, which compromises controller accuracy, this paper proposes an innovative output feedback using a cascaded observer structure. Through uniform exponential stability (UES) criterion, we demonstrate that proposed guarantees bounded tracking errors for states. A novel approach constructs desired load pressure from reference trajectories,...

Multi-way spool valves (MWSVs) with K-shape notches (KSNs) provide advantages such as improvement of the actuator speed control, micro-action, and response performance. However, pressure drop (PD) associated energy consumption is larger MWSVs under high-pressure large-flow condition. Meanwhile, extremely complex flow coefficient multi-parameter, highly coupled KSNs are chief factors restricting flow-pressure characteristics exploration optimisation design MWSVs.
